Last year during the St. Marks fishing tournament, Lauren and Tyler were hard at work trying to win this tournament.

Tyler decided he wanted to try a new lure and got down on one knee to look in his tackle box.  Lauren came over to help in the search because she was anxious to get back to the fishing and Tyler was holding them back from winning.

There they both were, on the boat in the middle of the ocean huddled around a tackle box.  Tyler handing Lauren some lures, some tools and then a little tan colored box.  She was about to place it down with everything else when it hit her and she started laughing and giggling and then crying.

Needless to say, no more fishing was done that day.  They headed off to the Shoals to celebrate with their waiting friends who were all in on the big surprise.

Guess what?  Lauren and Tyler ended up winning anyways!  They caught the most fish that day.

Slideshow of the wedding will be up on Friday.

Lulu Belle was a pound puppy when they found her.  Now she is showered every day with kisses.

She also got to be a part of the big day and walked down the aisle with the flower girl.

Friday night is here! Started off at the church to make sure that the big day would go nice and smoothly.

Stay tuned.  Dea and Gordon’s wedding images will be up tomorrow. Dea’s wedding shoes.  She gave them a test run on rehearsal night.   The Jimmy Choos did not let her down. The rehearsal dinner was held at the Beach Club at the Cloisters. Gordon’s mom is a woman that can make it happen.  After months of planning the rehearsal night, two weeks before the big day, Gordon politely suggested that he would love it if the dinner could reflect his love of the countryside and plantations that he grew up on. She did it.

The escort table is amazing.  Made with turkey feathers that she collected and hot glue on herself!

The groom’s cake was chocolate carrot cake.

Mr. Mooney started of the dinner with a welcome speech.  The night was full of toasting to Dea and Gordon.

Gordon’s twin sister Mary-Cathyryn said that the Mooney family knew Dea was the one because not only did Dea survive quail season but also participated in it out of love for her brother.

“Gordon need quail risings in his life and Dea understands this and his love for the land.”

They headed to Seville, Spain for a little vacation.  On the second day of that vacation, Aaron proposed to his love of 10 years.  Dina was surprised and ecstatic to say the least.

Aaron stated that the proposal could of easily happened five years earlier but they wanted to wait for both of them to be done with Law School.  Yes, they are both highly intelligent individuals.

My first wedding at Hotel Duval.  It is modern, fresh and beautiful.  I am over the moon about these images.  Love them.

The lovebirds are on a plane headed to the City of Love.  Paris, France!

Check the blog on Friday to see a slideshow of the wedding.

When Dina purchased her dress, they said to her that your photographer is just going to love it.  Boy, were they right.  The ruffles, texture and details are amazing.

If you look closely, you can see the Louis Ghost chairs that I am crazy about.  Yes, Hotel Duval is cool.

The Magic Shot was taken at the bar located at the top of Hotel Duval.  It looks like we are alone but we had a huge audience cheering us on.  Made it even more fun.
